FAQS

• Would you want know more about Bently Nevada Proximity Probes, Sensors & Transducer Systems?
  Customers who rely on mission-critical machinery choose our proximity probe sensors to monitor machine conditions and protect important equipment assets. We have many sensor types available for your object detection and temperature range needs. Whether you are looking for inductive proximity sensors, magnetic proximity sensors, ultrasonic proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, or capacitive proximity sensors, these sensor types can help with object detection, automation, and robotics. Our high-speed, low-cost products have a long service life as well.
• Do you know Professional Information of Bently Nevada Specifications?
  8mm Proximity Sensor - 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor The 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor incorporates numerous improvements over previous designs. Its physical packaging allows you to use it in high-density DIN-rail installations. You can also mount the sensor in a traditional panel mount configuration, where it shares an identical 4-hole mounting “footprint” with older Proximitor Sensor designs. The mounting base for either option provides electrical isolation and eliminates the need for separate isolator plates. The 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor is highly immune to radio frequency interference, allowing you to install it in fiberglass housings without adverse effects from nearby radio frequency signals. The 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor’s improved RFI/EMI immunity satisfies European CE mark approvals without requiring special shielded conduit or metallic housings, resulting in lower installation costs and complexity. The 3300 XL’s SpringLoc terminal strips require no special installation tools and facilitate faster, more robust field wiring connections by eliminating screwtype clamping mechanisms that can loosen. Proximitor Sensor Temperature Range Operating Temperature -52°C to +100°C (-62°F to +212°F) Storage Temperature -52 °C to +105 °C (-62 °F to +221 °F) Probe Relative Humidity - Less than a 3% change in Average Scale Factor (ASF) when tested in 93% humidity in accordance with IEC standard 68 2 3 for up to 56 days.
• What is Bently Nevada Do?
  The Bently Nevada 3500 Series Machinery Monitoring System provides continuous, online monitoring suitable for machinery protection and asset condition monitoring applications.
• How does the bently Nevada vibration sensor work?
  A design of displacement sensor manufactured by the Bently-Nevada corporation uses electromagnetic eddy current technology to sense the distance between the probe tip and the rotating machine shaft. The sensor itself is an encapsulated coil of wire, energized with high-frequency alternating current (AC).
• What kind of sensors does Bently Nevada offer?
  Our condition-based maintenance range of sensors began with the emergence of eddy current proximity transducers and evolved into a range of condition-monitoring systems, which features proximity probes, Proximitor† sensors, eddy current proximity transducers for measuring rotor shaft position and vibration, and more.
